Histogram

Exclusive Options

Current Bin

Default Value: include

Type: enumerated

Enum Options: include,exclude,half

Documentation: Only applies if cumulative is enabled. Sets whether the current bin is included, excluded, or has half of its value included in the current cumulative value. include is the default for compatibility with various other tools, however it introduces a half-bin bias to the results. exclude makes the opposite half-bin bias, and half removes it.

Path: data.index.cumulative.currentbin

Direction

Default Value: increasing

Type: enumerated

Enum Options: increasing,decreasing

Documentation: Only applies if cumulative is enabled. If increasing (default) we sum all prior bins, so the result increases from left to right. If decreasing we sum later bins so the result decreases from left to right.

Path: data.index.cumulative.direction

Enabled

Default Value: false

Type: boolean

Documentation: If true, display the cumulative distribution by summing the binned values. Use the direction and centralbin attributes to tune the accumulation method. Note: in this mode, the density histnorm settings behave the same as their equivalents without density: ** and density both rise to the number of data points, and probability and probability density both rise to the number of sample points.

Path: data.index.cumulative.enabled

Hist Func

Default Value: count

Type: enumerated

Enum Options: count,sum,avg,min,max

Documentation: Specifies the binning function used for this histogram trace. If count, the histogram values are computed by counting the number of values lying inside each bin. If sum, avg, min, max, the histogram values are computed using the sum, the average, the minimum or the maximum of the values lying inside each bin respectively.

Path: data.index.histfunc

Hist Norm

Default Value:

Type: enumerated

Enum Options: ,percent,probability,density,probability density

Documentation: Specifies the type of normalization used for this histogram trace. If **, the span of each bar corresponds to the number of occurrences (i.e. the number of data points lying inside the bins). If percent / probability, the span of each bar corresponds to the percentage / fraction of occurrences with respect to the total number of sample points (here, the sum of all bin HEIGHTS equals 100% / 1). If density, the span of each bar corresponds to the number of occurrences in a bin divided by the size of the bin interval (here, the sum of all bin AREAS equals the total number of sample points). If probability density, the area of each bar corresponds to the probability that an event will fall into the corresponding bin (here, the sum of all bin AREAS equals 1).

Path: data.index.histnorm

Accept List: true

Documentation: Template string used for rendering the information that appear on hover box. Note that this will override hoverinfo. Variables are inserted using %{variable}, for example "y: %{y}" as well as %{xother}, {%xother}, {%xother}, {%xother}. When showing info for several points, xother will be added to those with different x positions from the first point. An underscore before or after (x|y)other will add a space on that side, only when this field is shown. Numbers are formatted using d3-format's syntax %{variable:d3-format}, for example "Price: %{y:$.2f}". https://github.com/d3/d3-format/tree/v1.4.5#d3-format for details on the formatting syntax. Dates are formatted using d3-time-format's syntax %{variable|d3-time-format}, for example "Day: %{2019-01-01|%A}". https://github.com/d3/d3-time-format/tree/v2.2.3#locale_format for details on the date formatting syntax. The variables available in hovertemplate are the ones emitted as event data described at this link https://plotly.com/javascript/plotlyjs-events/#event-data. Additionally, every attributes that can be specified per-point (the ones that are arrayOk: true) are available. Finally, the template string has access to variable binNumber Anything contained in tag <extra> is displayed in the secondary box, for example "{fullData.name}". To hide the secondary box completely, use an empty tag <extra></extra>.

Color Bar Ticks Options

Colorbar D Tick

Type: any

Documentation: Sets the step in-between ticks on this axis. Use with tick0. Must be a positive number, or special strings available to log and date axes. If the axis type is log, then ticks are set every 10^(n*dtick) where n is the tick number. For example, to set a tick mark at 1, 10, 100, 1000, ... set dtick to 1. To set tick marks at 1, 100, 10000, ... set dtick to 2. To set tick marks at 1, 5, 25, 125, 625, 3125, ... set dtick to log_10(5), or 0.69897000433. log has several special values; L, where f is a positive number, gives ticks linearly spaced in value (but not position). For example tick0 = 0.1, dtick = L0.5 will put ticks at 0.1, 0.6, 1.1, 1.6 etc. To show powers of 10 plus small digits between, use D1 (all digits) or D2 (only 2 and 5). tick0 is ignored for D1 and D2. If the axis type is date, then you must convert the time to milliseconds. For example, to set the interval between ticks to one day, set dtick to 86400000.0. date also has special values M gives ticks spaced by a number of months. n must be a positive integer. To set ticks on the 15th of every third month, set tick0 to 2000-01-15 and dtick to M3. To set ticks every 4 years, set dtick to M48
